      To use the new inode shrinker we need to move to the new fs_context API. This new API also has some really powerful new features. One being that we can set file system parameters independent of performing a mount. This can replace the current approach Lustre uses to tune a file system with tunefs with a universal standard approach. We can also remount lustre with new mount settings.
